Tri-C The Colts' Camera Club had a very enjoyable and successful year, in spite of working under difficulties through the loss of many of its members by graduation. One of the most interesting meetings was one in the form of a Held trip. This was held at Belle Isle during the first part of the semester, as the island always does furnish beautiful pictures. This splendid trip gave to the mem- bers a good selection for pictures. As a form of amusement there was staged a treasure hunt in which all members eagerly took part. Following this came the lunch of goodies and other such dainties as are expected on a picnic. The purpose and aim of this club is first, to give a variety of exhibits: and second, to improve in taking pictures and to profit by and enjoy the criticisms given the pictures by the faculty advisers and other experts on photography, There were several social meetings held during the terms, and with Helen Campbell as chairman of the program committee there were many interest- ing and beneiicial programs given. These social meetings were topped with refreshments, which always make an event be proclaimed as enjoyable. The success of the club was due to the faculty adviser, Mrs. Holmes, together with its efficient officers and the co-operation of its members. The officers of the year were: President, Mildred Cloonan fly, 425: vice-presi- dent, Helen Campbell Qld, Q23 g secretary, Alice Beckerson tlj, QZJ 3 treasurer, Virginia Baxter CU, t2AJg and the student council representative, Grace M.

Euclidean The Euclidean Club, under the able guidance of Miss Luccock and Mr. Vvylllilll, has had a very successful year. The officers for the first term were president, Bernice Finleyg vice- president, Ruth Herrmanng secretary, Doris Hicks, student council repre- sentative, Helen Humphrey. For the second term the officers chosen were president, Clarence Alban: vice-president, -lean Hegwoodg secretary, Helen Baldwin: student council representative, Ruth Hermann. The September initiation was placed in the hands of Elizabeth Downie and proved to be a 'fwild and woolly affair. Prospective members were blindfolded and led through the halls. Arriving at their destination they were subjected to every conceivable torture, from eating raw oysters to receiving electric shocks. This mock initiation was followed by a solemn ceremony which included pledging allegiance before a lighted candle, accord- ing to Ye Ancient Euclidean Custom. The Christmas season found the club delivering baskets of food to sev- eral poor families found by Miss Luccock, The members felt well paid for this work, as their efforts were very much appreciated. . The new term saw the club well under way with -plans for a member- ship campaign. Students receiving :X or B in Geometry ill, 1-25, or LKSJ were sent invitations to join, and plans for initiation were forthcoming. Due to the severe illness of Miss Luccock the work of the club was set back for a time but when she returned the wheels were again set in motion and plans were made for the summer initiation, the spring hike, and a checker tournament.
